B&B Calandrella

Basilicata


Expect a warm welcome at this family-owned B&B in the coastal hamlet of Cersuta, 5km northwest of Maratea. The main building and other standalone cottages are daubed in warm, Mediterranean colours and the colourful room interiors feature a quirky nautical theme. Look forward to enjoying a complimentary Peroni beer on the outdoor terrace if you've arrived after a long drive.
